Lin Ru sneered inwardly. Since they could tell that they both had martial arts skills, her little tricks in private should not be able to escape their eyes either!
It seems these two don't want to cause too much of a commotion.
Because those soldiers should be nearby, if the commotion of fighting gets out, those soldiers will change their route, and they won't be able to save the people they want to save!
In fact, it doesn't have to come to a point where they have to fight to the death!
But I don't want to get involved in their affairs!
Therefore, we must take control of the discourse!
So she smiled and said, "Okay, let's work together then!"
"But as you can see, I have quite a few elderly, weak, women and children here!"
"I must leave some people here to look after these elderly, weak, women and children, as well as the Tao family. They hate me to the bone now, and they should hate you just as much!"
"Besides, I promised my grandfather that these people must not be killed!"
"We still need to tie them up first, to prevent them from stabbing us in the back, and also the little girl's corpse at your feet!"
"I was thinking of returning it to them, after all, she's my second aunt's precious niece!"
"My two older cousins are also very good to this girl!"
I love her so much!
"Although I killed her, at least I left her with a whole corpse!"
After saying that, she handed the bow and arrows back to Diao Yan!
She smiled and raised her hand!
"Look, I don't have anything in my hands. Why don't I go and carry this body over to them?"
“You are all men, and this young girl is, after all, a woman. Although she wasn’t exactly a virtuous person in life, she came from a scholarly family, and she had many customs and traditions both in life and after death!”
"It's never good if a man touches your body after you've died!"
When Zhang Tiedan heard Lin Ru say this, he curled his lip in disdain!
"What kind of scholarly family is this? It must be fake! Only a family of treacherous officials could raise a girl like this!"
"And who would want to touch her! I wouldn't even touch her if she were alive, let alone a corpse!"
"Then come and carry her away!"
Lin Ru thanked Zhang Tiedan with a smile!
"That's really great, thank you so much!"
"You are such a kind person!"
Just as she was about to approach Zhang Tiedan and the others, Gao Du suddenly stopped her, saying, "Wait! I think it would be difficult for a young girl like you to lift her up. Judging from your age, you shouldn't be much older than her."
"Besides, you're much smaller than her, so why don't you and the woman next to you come and carry this little girl's body away together!"
Lin Ru looked back in the direction he was pointing and saw that the woman Gao Du had mentioned was actually her mother!
She then realized that her mother hadn't hidden and was still standing there!
She frowned and said, "This woman isn't very strong. I'll go over myself; I can carry her!"
Gao Du's eyes turned cold upon hearing this!
"You little brat, are you up to some trick? If you really want to team up, bring that woman with you!"
"I know she has a close relationship with you, otherwise she wouldn't have been standing behind you, and just now she was staring at you with a worried look on her face!"
"If you're not bringing her, then don't come!"
Lin Ru turned to look at her mother, gave her a wink, and mouthed the words, hoping her mother would understand what she meant!
It seems that Mrs. Bai has already guessed what her daughter is planning to do!
She felt all eyes on her, so she didn't even dare to nod, for fear of making things worse!
Lin Ru didn't know if her mother-in-law understood, but she agreed to it anyway!
Lin Ru took her mother's hand, and the two of them walked together toward the group of bandits!
Everyone's hearts jumped into their throats, fearing that something might have happened to them!
Gao Du and Zhang Tiedan were also keeping a close eye on the two's movements, but mainly on Lin Ru!
In their eyes, Bai Shi was not a threat at all; she looked pitiful and weak.
Even walking requires someone to hold your hand; it's terrifying to even look at!
This little girl is truly unfathomable!
They wanted to see what tricks this little brat was up to!
But to their surprise, the two men walked straight toward the corpse without making any move!
Just as the two of them were about to relax and sincerely cooperate with these people, an unexpected change occurred!
Suddenly, a dagger appeared in Lin Ru's hand, and she stabbed it straight at Zhang Tiedan!
Zhang Tiedan narrowed his eyes and dodged to the side!
Upon seeing this sudden turn of events, the bandits nearby all drew their knives and prepared to slash at the people of Shili Village!
Gao Du was about to stop his men from making too much noise, as it would be bad if the soldiers heard them, but he hadn't spoken yet!
Suddenly, the seemingly gentle and easily bullied woman also produced a dagger in her hand. With a flash, she pressed the dagger against Gao Du's neck!
Gao Du devoted all his energy to Lin Ru!
He didn't even glance at the woman who was relatively close to him!
He never expected that this woman was so skilled; she looked unsteady on her feet and always had a crying expression when she looked at people, but he never expected her to be so good at fighting!
He had met countless people over the years, but he never expected to be deceived by a woman!
He wanted to turn the tide with his own strength, but he didn't expect that the woman in front of him was not only skilled, but also seemed to have a lot of internal strength!
Since we can predict his next move!
When he looked at the woman's expression again, she no longer looked like she was about to cry; now she had a murderous look on her face!
He finally understood Zhang Tiedan's feelings; indeed, women love to lie!
Bai pressed the dagger tightly against Gao Du's throat!
She glared at the bandits with murderous intent and shouted a warning!
"Stop it, all of you! Put down your knives! Or I'll kill him!"
Zhang Tiedan, who was standing next to him, was also suddenly distracted by these words. He wanted to turn his head to see what was going on and make fun of Gao Du!
Unexpectedly, he was caught off guard and suddenly the little girl in front of him grabbed his lifeline, and then a cold dagger was instantly pressed against his throat!
He felt the coldness on his neck and cried out in his heart, "Why am I so keen on watching the show!"
He was actually subdued by a little girl. How is he going to face his elders and brothers after this?
It doesn't cause much harm, but it's extremely insulting!
The bandits were a bit stunned; they were starting to regret following these two captains!
I should have gone with the second-in-command. He may look weak and unassuming, but he's still better than those two dimwits!
Just then, Wu Ling arrived with his men!
